The search for Trooper Guthrie continued for months. On January 12, 2012, Trooper Guthrie's body was recovered under approximately 3 1/2 feet of packed sand and silt, after a brush pile was removed during an excavation process. The recovery site was south of where K-9 Reed was found months earlier, near the original search site.

His body was located 4 months after he was carried away and drowned.

I posted this follow-up on 11-10-12. I found it to be a very grievous event to our LEO community.

To lose a brother and to be finally located over 4 months later. Nobody's fault,.... just very very tragic.

Tragic indeed.....I offer my prayers to this law enforcement professional and all who know and love him.
